During the winter months, there's no kitchen appliance more convenient than a slow cooker for whipping up cold-weather stews, curries, soups, risottos, and more. While slow cookers tend to be pricey — Breville's Smart Temp Slow Cooker is on the pricey side at $179.95 — Kmart's offering is a much cheaper option that's popular with shoppers.
The retailer sells a 6.5-liter slow cooker with multiple temperature settings, an LED display, and a removable ceramic pot for $45. One shopper shared a post to a popular Facebook group this week asking about the product's quality, which garnered a lot of positive responses.

“Mine is the best, no issues and the cooking time is always accurate,” one person wrote, while another added: “I just bought one and it's better than the expensive one I had before.”
“We love it, use it almost daily for months now, no need to pay extra as it works just as well,” a third said.
“I love mine, have had it for years, will be using it when I grill lamb shanks on Saturday,” replied another, followed by another: “I have one too and I love it, have had it for over 3 years and have never had an issue.”
“I have two and they're amazing,” replied another.
“Highly recommended”
Kmart's product page also features hundreds of positive reviews from people praising the item, saying it's easy to clean, looks great and has lots of handy features.
“No need to buy the expensive ones, these are just as good quality and much cheaper,” commented one shopper, while another wrote: “I would recommend this slow cooker to everyone, it's big enough to cook a whole chicken or roast chicken.”
“After hesitating for years to buy and try a slow cooker, this has been a great discovery,” shared another. “I'm eating healthier, tastier food and it has inspired non-cooks to cook too. Heartily recommend.”
Meanwhile, many TikTok creators are showing how to make simple, tasty meals using Kmart products, with one woman (@demikacucca) making a three-ingredient slow-cooked Mexican chicken that she described as “simple, quick, easy, cost-effective and delicious,” while another user (@iamsamanthajane_) made a chicken and pumpkin risotto.
“Why did it take me so long to jump on the slow cooker trend?” she wrote.
